Dear Daddy

by Jenna   Aug 14, 2007


Dear daddy,
you know me
the real me,
the little girl you brought into this world.
and even tho things have changed,
daddy, I'm still that little girl.

you've seen me go through things
that you and my mama never wanted me to
i know i disappointed you daddy, i hope you really forgive me.

I'm still that little girl who loves to dance around in the yard,
the little girl who splashes you in the lake and tries to push you under.
and I'm still that little girl who dreams to be a cop just like you.
i still wanna follow in your foot steps daddy, and be strong just like you.

you saw me in that hospital daddy, and i know you were angry.
daddy please don't lie
i know what i did was stupidity.
you and mom were right about him, he was wrong for me
i let him get the best of me.

daddy, i just want you to know I'm truly in love now,
and i want you to please be there for me,
when i become his wife.
i know you'll never think anyone is good enough for your little girl
but daddy, i know hes the one,
he's the half that makes me whole.

daddy no matter what I'll always be your little girl
but please daddy realize that its time for you to let me go.
i need to grow up and be strong for once in my life
i thank you daddy for helping me through everything,
helping me become clean, and giving me the help i needed, without all that I'd probably be dead,
daddy, i love you, I'll always be your baby girl.

    This piece brought tears to my eyes. My Dad has been gone for 12yrs now. It is so hard to let your children go. In parents eyes they are always the babies they gave life to. Great piece.
